I drive by the former BL Bistro location a lot. It's in my neighborhood. So I have watched it transform a few times. It was once BL Bistro - 2203 S Austin. Then after a split they closed and it changed to The Gem. They closed down as well. Back in April I saw that it leased.
When one restaurant closes here in Amarillo it seems another one opens. Which really is great news. I love having all these options. We can go to a different restaurant every single day for many months. What is bad about that?
